Keep attendance records clear while treating location data with care.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

For an employer with an appropriate and clearly disclosed attendance process, review location-based entry and exit events for a designated worksite and organize them into a dated record. Location signals can be delayed, inaccurate, or unavailable, and a geofence event alone does not prove time worked. Explain tracking to workers, collect only what is necessary, restrict access, and require a supervisor to review exceptions before using records for payroll or employment decisions.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Helps a site team organize reported location events into entry and exit attendance records and flag issues for review.

Review points proposed in this idea

GPS can drift, fail indoors, or report a device rather than the worker. Follow applicable workplace privacy and labor rules, provide clear notice, protect location history, offer a correction process, and never rely on a geofence event alone for pay or disciplinary decisions.

Proposed setup considerations

These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.

  1. 01

    Provide clear worker notice and policy

    Explain location collection, purpose, access, retention, and available alternatives or corrections.

  2. 02

    Set and verify each worksite boundary

    Use the correct location and a reasonable radius, then test likely edge cases.

  3. 03

    Define data quality and exception handling

    Account for GPS error, device failure, missed events, and time-zone differences.

  4. 04

    Keep payroll and personnel decisions human-reviewed

    Require supervisor verification and a fair correction process before consequential use.

Read the prelaunch status

Published templates and verified customer availability remain pending.
